The hunger for Aberdeen's Ruby Tuesday restaurant to open is about to be satisfied. The first day of business will be Oct. 2. That is the word from Gary Score, a regional Ruby Tuesday executive based in Sioux Falls, and Nancy Johnson, the local manager. I visited the restaurant at 3125 Sixth Ave. S.E. on Thursday to see how things were coming along. There was an orientation with new employees in progress. The restaurant, kitchen and bar area are finished. I only saw part of the facility, but it looked great.
